• Thai • Elmhurst
Booked 5 times today
Zaab Zaab is proud natives of Queens, opened their restaurant in the heart of Elmhurst’s Little Thailand in April of 2022 just before Songrkan, or Thai New Year. The destination for authentic Isaan cuisine from Northeastern Thailand has received numerous accolades, including a 3-star review from Pete Wells of The New York Times, and being listed two years in a row on the NYT’s 100 Best Restaurants in NYC as well as being nominated as a semifinalist in the outstanding Restaurateur category for the 2024 James Beard Foundation Awards. Zaab Zaab is also recognized as a Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant.

“My original thinking when we opened the restaurant was to serve the local Thai community in Elmhurst,” says Chunton. “Clearly I underestimated New York City’s appetite for Northeastern Thai food. We now have five locations across Queens, Brooklyn, and Manhattan and are so proud to represent Thai food and culture in New York City.”

    Best place for family dinner. They have valet parking. I came here with 7 of my family members and we got seated right away. We all ordered the churrasco experience where they come around with unlimited meats to your table and you pick your sides at the buffet. This place is luxury even the bathroom. The staff are very friendly and attentive. Everyone ordered at least 2 drinks. I love the spicy steak. They also have steak wrapped in bacon and chicken wrapped in bacon. It was all delicious. The bill was $780 between 7 of us. 10/10 definitely recommend for family dinners of date nights. Very nice ambiance.
